excellent points about Lou/Lex middle schools. Like many people I believe parents should think hard about letting their 6-8 grader play varsity. While she physically can, to have those young girls hang out with 17-18 yo girls could be asking for trouble. Another point, if this girl plays for the same coach for 5-7 years, what are the odds that kid gets burned out doing the same drills, plays, etc for that many years? There are many inequities between the KHSAA and Lou/Lex schools. I wish that like the NCAA that all middle and high schools under the KHSAA had the same rules.

You have to admire Crosby from Louisville. They had only played 1 game so far this season before this tournament versus their competition having played 30-40 games. Louisville and Lexington middle schools are at a huge disadvantage with basketball being a winter sport versus a fall sport for the rural areas.

State of KY - not National. No plans to play in Nationals.

The Louisville Select 12U Red team won the Div 1 KY AAU tournament. They won all four pool play games by an average of 28 pts. They beat the Blast by 4 points for the Championship - but beat them by 39 the previous day in pool play. The Select has won the 12U Div 1 AAU Championship 2 of the past 3 years. The Select 12U Red team only plays in the 12U age group in the State AAU tournament. In all other tournaments they will typically play either 13U or 14U depending on the strength of the event. The Louisville Select 12U Black team played in the D2 AAU tournament losing to the BCK team (eventual champion) in the semi-finals. This was the first AAU experience for most of these players.

Final: ETown 70 - Boone 54
